You may have thought all superyachts were created equal. But according to one designer, there is a gap in the market for vessels2 targeted at the fairer sex.
也许你会觉得超级游艇的建造不分性别,但据一位设计师表示,市场上针对女性市场设计的船只数量有限。
In case the world's most powerful women don't want to splash out on the regular millionaires' toys on the market, luxury designer Lidia Bersani has created the first luxury mega yacht with a female in mind.
The
sleek3 white and gold yacht, measuring an impressive 262ft, is targeted at female buyers and is designed using crystal, gold, fur and flowers. It is even named La
Belle4, which translates as 'the beauty'.
The 80-metre superyacht is not for the faint hearted. It's a riot of opulent gold
mosaics5, mother of pearl, Swarovski crystal chandeliers, gemstones, onyx and
bespoke6 wooden furniture.
The boat's design
revolves7 around soft edges, smooth lines, floral patterns and a large amount of glass, crystal and bright white.
Lidia Bersani's website says of La Belle: '[The] Yacht is in
distinctive8 Bersani Style, romantic and warm. The colors in white, ivory and gold are predominant. Interior is full of opulent and comfortable elements.'
The master cabin on the second deck has a round king size double bed, private terrace, thick curtains, gold touches and floral carpeting.
There are five other guest
suites10 spread around the boat. If you get bored of sunning yourself on deck the yacht has lounges, dining places and facilities for live music.
In place of
darts11 boards and computer games, you'll find a spa area with hyrdromassage pool, sauna, hamman,
infrared12 sauna, snow room and ice fountains; small fitness club with outdoor Jacuzzi; library with fireplace; beauty centre, disco club, cinema – theatre, as well as a few bars.
'The idea is to equip this Super Yacht with ultra-modern
stabilizing13 system and state of the art
machinery14 and equipment,' says Lidia Bersani Luxury Design.
Each of the five decks has an outside area for relaxing, sun bathing and looking out to sea. There's a lift as well as staircase to take you in between them.
Of the price, Ms Bersani told MailOnline, 'Unfortunately we do not have yet the final price. The idea is to build the most
luxurious15 yacht on the world, and the golden decorations, Swarovski crystals, and some precious stones which we would like to use, it will be not cheap, I am sure.'
